linux redhat + login prompt keep getting again and again [duplicate]

  • 772

we installed new server redhat version - 6.7 from kick start,

after installation complete successfully we get the login prompt

but I am unable to login locally on my redhat linux 6.7 server.

The login prompt keep getting again and again , and I cant get the passwd prompt

I restart the machine and access VIA single user mode ,

But can’t understand what are the files/conf that caused this issue or maybe something else?

please advise how to resolve this problem

linux redhat login kickstart passwd

  1. Edit the kernel booting options, change ro init=/sysroot/bin/sh to rw init=/sysroot/bin/sh and boot CentOS. When logged in, follow these commands:

    chroot /sysroot
passwd root
touch /.autorelabel
reboot

    You now should be able to loggin as root user.
